Much like the first series I get none of the references since I've never read lovecrafts stuff, but I continue to find a mass amount of enjoyment from it

I realise this is like at the furthest point from Lovecrafts actual stuff, but either way it's an awesome setting. So far I'd say this season is definately stronger than last season if only for Kuuko being so amazing <33

This new episode was a major surprise to me. First of all, it begans with a sea of well-known specific references such as Dragon Ball, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure and Heaven Memo's Pad. Even better was when they included an adult version of Hastur voiced by the glorious VA that is Tomokazu Seki! I already fangirling him the entire time but I'm sad that it turns out to be so short. Maybe he'll turn adult in the final episode or so, but it looks like the next segment revolve around the return of fujoshi affair it seems!

I thought those dudes in the library last week looked a little W-ish, and this week layered the references to ShoPhil's adventures on pretty heavy. Including a direct reference to one of the ending themes. I was hoping Nyarko might find a way to turn into CJGX (or maybe even CAX), but that's naught but an extreme dream. Seeing Hastur unlock his true power was kind of cool, too. And of course, the anticlimax. Just an interstellar version of the WWF (the nature organization, not the wrestling one) - their causes are good, but misguided. I also loved Nyarko trying to turn herself into a living Saburo Hatte, trying to end the show with everything possible, including killing off her co-stars and finally following through on her pregnancy. Such a treat, this show.

No matter how many times it happens, I keep forgetting that every random piece of stupid incidental dialogue is always going to turn out to be "foreshadowing" (if you want to give it that much credit) for the arc's conclusion.

Also love Nyaruko randomly trying to end the series prematurely so that she can skip right to the After Story.

I will admit Nyaruko had me going for a bit and believe that Mahiro was really doing "something" to her. And Shantak-kun did a really good job protecting Mahiro for Nyaruko, to be expected considering the fact that his life was on the line if anything happend to Mahiro.
